External Storage XP user guide 31
NOTE: Do not access any external storage volume that is mapped as an External Storage XP volume from
a host connected directly to the external disk array. Also, do not access an External Storage XP mapped
external array volume using the external disk arrayās functions (for example, local replication). After
mapping an external disk volume as a local XP12000/XP10000 volume, access the mapped external
disk volume only via the local XP12000/XP10000 disk array.
NOTE: With the exception of MSA, a host can directly access external disk array volumes that are not
mapped as local disk array volumes.
